    Here's a question I'd like answered?
    Why must some posters go into other people's threads, I'm talking about posted play threads, where, (I'm not just talking about me) a poster makes a legit play, spent time on the write up, gave the game some thought, and totally spam it.

    The sad thing is, the people that spam, or troll many of these posted play threads, have never posted a play here in their life.

    Here's a novel idea, instead of posting "your play sucks hamburger" try being respectful when you fade a play, how about explaining why you don't like the game.

    Knock it off !

        If OP posts that it's a lock with no reason as to why, I can understand the trolling. However, in the example you give, it's BS to troll.

          Vargas has some good numbers agains Dbacks. Couldnt say the same about Cahill vs. Mariners. I'm not sure if you based your pick on those stats. I don't want to compare the scenario but yesterday this was the same situation Hamels was in vs. the Rockies where he didnt have a good history against them. Sometimes you gotta roll with the hotter pitcher. Cahill's won 3 in a row and given up only 2 runs in like 3 games. But BOL with your pick! I tailed a pick of your's several games back and it cashed. Thanks for that!

            Yes, if it's an attention whoring, waste of space, lock of the century, joke of a tread, I'll be the first to jump ugly and pile on, but I seriously believe there are posters here that root for people to fail.

                  Just playing Nash. You are one of about six guys here I read and agree with more often than not. Today you have to go with the starter you think will go more quality innings. Pens are tired. Good luck.

                      Just playing Nash. You are one of the few guys here, that I don't mind that look for attention. I usually read your thread, but never post, and never tail/fade.

                      Good luck on the sonics bet.

                        I'm with you. I don't care if you disagree with a play or think it sucks but tell me why. Nothing wrong with open discussion maybe there's something I missed.

                            OK, few reasons, Vargas has had success in the past against this team (like you said)
                            It's a value play, I personally think the line should be +130/-140, not +150/-160.
                            I've been successful so far this year on these 'so called' value plays.
                            Vargas can match Cahill pitch for pitch, M's bats are much more consistent these days.

                              I guess I never got the memo from 5Dimes and Heritage stating "Nash, we are begging you to play Mariners"
                              Be back in a second, I need to check my spam folder in my e-mail account, I think that memo may have been moved there.

                              Thanks for your spot on, usual insight Emily.

                                Vargas coming off a bad start, Cahill coming off great one with plenty of SOs. Arizona has been scoring lately. Going with the guy who strikes everyone out. Why do you like Sea? Feel your pain with the internet flamers dog, but I would have liked it if you spent your time writing about the play, would much rather discuss that than lame sbr posters.

                                  Had to be said. This place is starting to turn into the RX

                                  You like Cahill and the Snakes, bet them up, what do you think, I'm going to stay at 73 percent all season?
                                  Don't let some dopey internet poster get you off your play, you like 'Zona, then play it for the love of God.
                                  I like the M's at +150, if it goes south, it goes south, so be it.

                                    Cahill has the better numbers here but definitely not enough to warrant a +150 line for Vargas. Mariners have a better record on the road than at home, they can play.

                                    I like it.

                                      losers want to see others fail. there's nothing new here, and it's certainly to be expected at times among a group of degenerate gamblers.

                                        I never seem to get trolled when I make a bet threads.

                                        I think whenever a poster on here makes a "Lock of the week" "Biggest play of my life" "$10,000 bet!" then loses that bet. That's when the trolls flood in to criticize the bad/square play.

                                          because we get a laugh from softies like you who need a kleenex every time someone criticizes your play.

                                          if you really can't stand it here or complain about the BS that gets dished out on a public gambling forum then go on about your business somewhere else

                                          easy as that. but its obvious you post plays and spend considerable amounts of time on a message board because your the one desperate for attention.

                                          so go on. tell us who is going to win.

                                            The longball hurt arizona last night. I don't expect cahill to allow any homers. Vargas has a bad June, and I don't expect him to have a bounce back start in arizona, where they're hitting pretty well (16 runs in the past 2 games vs seattle)

                                              Disagree with cahill's numbers vs mariners. He started 5 games vs the mariners in 2011, 4 games he allowed 2 runs or less. one bad outing he allowed 7 runs. This was in the AL, with the DH. Vargas numbers come from 3 starts, 2009, and two in 2005.. can't give much credit for that.

                                                Its the most annoying thing about this place

                                                And the reason no one should ever post plays

                                                There are way too many brokedikk fukks here that will spend there whole night watching posters posted plays praying they lose

                                                They win and the thread gets zero replies

                                                They lose and all the brokedikk fukks like sinner come out of the woodwork laughing cause there life is so miserable its the only free enjoyment they can find

                                                No reason to ever post plays

He started 5 games vs the mariners in 2011, 4 games he allowed 2 runs or less. one bad outing he allowed 7 runs. This was in the AL, with the DH. Vargas numbers come from 3 starts, 2009, and two in 2005.. can't give much credit for that.

                                                  And that's the reason why I'd go with Arizona instead. Thanks JLee!

                                                    if you really can't stand it here or complain about the BS that gets dished out on a public gambling forum then go on about your business somewhere else

                                                    easy as that. but its obvious you post plays and spend considerable amounts of time on a message board because your the one desperate for attention.

                                                    so go on. tell us who is going to win.
                                                    Says the guy who never posted a play in his life, tells me last month my Cubs pick over the Padres was garbage, I win that, and a few days later goes into another guys SD Padre TT over 4 thread, "tells him it's a good play, that there is no such thing as a lock, but that play is close to a lock, but I can't play it" and that wins.

                                                    Everytime you open your mouth you stick your foot in it, you amuse me. I think I like you.

                                                      Regardless of what others think, it would be nice to see a write up. Yours and a few others, like LTA, Red, Pacocn are worth the time reading. The fact that people come and post and view your threads shows they follow you and think its worth the time to respond,whether it's to talk crap or not! Keep up the good work! It doesn't go unnoticed!

                                                        I like the Under 8.5 in this one. I know the bullpens are spent, it's going
                                                        to be hot, these teams hung 21 runs last night, but i really like the under.

                                                          I have a theory that has had some success in the past, I call it 'the shot their load theory'
                                                          I have found more times than not, that when teams combine for 16 or more runs in a previous game, and play each other the next game, the total usually (not always) goes under.

                                                              Nash, I like your plays. You are usually spot on. People criticize others because they are afraid to make their own plays. I have been gone for awhile, but the last time I saw Emily making his own plays he was doing ML parlays of NCAA football teams favored by over 30 points.
